"Let me tell you a little secret dear Sylvia...I was created to try to blend in and gather information secretly for people. But I absolutely hated the idea of that. A star like me should be in the spotlight. I know nothing about how to get to that, but half the fun is discovering. As for you... I don't know why you were 'made'. I've even heard of people creating bio-androids as children if they are physically unable to. What matters is what you do here and now, and what you want to be in the future. You can only change things immediately now, that's why its called the 'present'." Balotsi smiles softly

Syvlia soaked all the advice in. From Photina telling her that she was still her, to Balosi explaining that she didn't need to follow the purpose for her creation. Her head was still spinning, trying to make sense of everything she was being told. She felt dizzy and overwhelmed from it all. She nodded at Photina.
"Yeah, I'm still me." Sylvia mumbled. She sat down on the ground, her eyes looking down at her feet. She was feeling a little better from before with all the encouragement. But now she had no idea what to do with her life. Besides keep on following Photina around. There were a lot of questions she was going to have to ask herself, and find a way to answer them. Unfortunately, this would involve a lot of thinking. Sylvia didn't like thinking.

The Light Elfen takes a seat next to Sylvia. Honestly, Photina couldn't even begin to imagine how much her mind must have been racing from this revelation. The closest thing that Photina could think of was being born as a Light Elfen; all the responsibility that comes with it. But... She also had a lot of time to get used to that, and she wasn't alone. She had a family. Sylvia had only very recently made one friend before having her whole world changed like this.
Balotsi gently explained what they were made for, the differences between them and Sylvia, and mainly offered encouraging words as to how to proceed now. This prompts the Elfen to give a calm nod. " I'd still like you to come with me, too. So if you're at all asking yourself about what your 'place' is in all of this... Well, you have a home here." Photina would then chuckle very slightly. " Not much yet, but... I'll build us a nice house. I'll make sure this is a place where you can make as many friends as you want, too." In the end, the Elfen thought that perhaps this was the best way of doing things, just showing Sylvia that she wasn't alone, and that she'd always have something to come back to. It was better than her just thinking that there was just wilderness that she used to find comforting, and no one to turn to.
With that, she looks to Balotsi. " Thank you for helping me with Syl." Balotsi Sylvia

As Balotsi looked at the two, they couldn't help the twinge of jealousy that welled up in their chest. How unbecoming of a future star... They would be adored by billions, so why should they care about two random 'strangers'. They looked away from the conversation, feeling that it was private between the two. The two of them seemed sickeningly sweet, almost lost in their own little world. That's why it took a second for Balotsi to realize they were being addressed. "Hmm? Oh its nothing sugar. Just trying to at least give a good impression for later on~" They wink. Sylvia Photina

Sylvia blinked as she heard that. She climbed back up to her feet, looking at Balosi for a moment. Then she looked at Photina inquisitively. "You want Balosi to come with us? How come?" She didn't seem to be against the idea from the look of things. But she couldn't help but wonder why Photina wanted another traveling companion.

Sylvia seemed a bit confused by how the conversation was playing out; wasn't really her fault. There had been a lot of shocking things in a very short span of time. The Light Elfen giggles softly as she stands up with her. " I meant you, silly. You're always gonna have a place with me." , she'd give another gentle headpat to the comparatively smaller girl, and then she looks over to Balotsi." But she does raise a good point... I do have big plans here on Hegemon. I'm uncertain of how you wish to proceed, but you're welcome to join us, Balotsi." , she then adds with a smile." As for the 'why' of it... On the one hand, I consider it a form of practice. I want to unify my people. What better way to start on the road towards that than by being welcoming to all? Plus, how many future leaders can say they're friends with a star and just a general bundle of joy?" , it was pretty clear which person Photina was referring to with which nickname.
But a general hint was given by her giving a knowing glance to Balotsi when she mentioned star, and then ruffling Sylvia's hair when she said 'bundle of joy'." It's your choice of course, Balotsi. But you're welcome all the same." Sylvia Balotsi

The offer for them to join the two took Balotsi off guard, and it was obvious. They physically took a step back as an immediate response, and their eyes widened. They wanted to accept, to finally be around other people and not just on their own. But at the same time... they wouldn't have 'full control' of where they wanted to go, or really be able to do whatever they wanted. The thought of the loss of control seemed sickening.
At the same time, the crippling loneliness was even more so.
"Alrighty! You really didn't have to flatter me, but it is very much appreciated. I'll join you then!"

"Oh! I knew that Photina! You're my bestie!" Sylvia closed her eyes, smiling happily as Photina pat her head. Fortunately it hadn't taken that much to get her in decent spirits again. As long as she didn't think about the more serious stuff Photina was saying, then everything was getting better! Sylvia opened her eyes, looking at Balosi happily.
"You will?! Yay! Now I can say I know a star!" The Bio-Android said happily, clapping her palms together. The more people she traveled with, the more fun things would get. Simple logic, right?

It seems like Photina managed to recruit another person to help her out! The Light Elfen was thankful for that, right now she was having to build everything up to her ambition from square one. She had all the information she needed, but now she needed raw experience and the support of others. Sylvia was a perfect starting point, and she was certain that no matter what came up from here on, she could count on her. Photina would return the favor whenever it was needed.
While that type of bond hadn't been formed with Balotsi yet, the Elfen girl wasn't opposed to it becoming a similar kind of connection either. " Excellent! Since you mentioned being like Sylvia, I'll keep it simple. I'm not here to order you to do anything. You're free to do whatever you want, whenever you want. However, I do ask that you don't cause trouble for people." She begins her explanation, one that Sylvia was probably familiar with, to at least some degree. " You'll learn a lot about their cultures, and you may not fully agree with them or their ways; that's fine. Keep rough-housing to a minimum, but defend yourself if needed. I'll do my best to help you both integrate fully into society!" With that simple explanation out of the way... " Now, since our group just expanded, how about a celebration? I'm sure we can find something fun to do!" True to her word, it didn't seem like Photina was going to try and make Balotsi do anything they would be uncomfortable with; if they weren't in the mood to celebrate, well, she wasn't going to force that on them either. But she figured this might be the best way to put all of that dark stuff behind them, so they can focus on the present. There was going to be a lot to do, after all.
She already knew that the larger her group becomes, the more necessary it's going to become to get some sort of base figured out... They needed a place to call home, and staying at inns or hotels would only work so well for so long. The idea of growing a whole nation sounded outlandish, but that's why she had an outlandish group!

When Sylvia called Balotsi a star, the bio-android froze up. They wiped a tear from the corner of their eye, face somewhat stoic. To be cause crying over something as simple as this would be so embarrassing. "Well I should be fine dearie! Thank you for the concern, but don't underestimate moi~ Now, lets get this party started!"Balotsi wouldn't mind partying and celebrating at all. Though... it is true that they're going to have to make or find a 'home base' eventually. That could range from a small 'campsite' area they can set up in to a Fae village, or even something built by hand. Balotsi likely wouldn't know much about growing a whole nation, but they always have been a quick learner! Sylvia Photina

"Yay! A party!" Sylvia cheered, pumping her fist in the air. She had no idea what a party was. Her maker didn't seem to think it was important enough to give her information on. She couldn't find any information on what a party was. But Photina suggested it, so it must be super fun! That was always worth cheering about.

Well, with all of the drama now set aside, they could focus on forging a lasting bond in this group! Photina smiles and takes the lead. She already knew the perfect way to kick things off. All she had to do was pay a visit to a certain restaurant in Hyperborea. The Boreas Tribe were jovial folk, and that reflected in the kind of businesses they ran too. But there was one star even among that. She wasn't going to spoil the surprise for either of them. If they asked where they were going, she'd just wave it off and tell them to keep following her.
Any questions related to that would be answered as they had made their way through the streets in the city and ended up at a grand doorway. The frames painstakingly decorated and carved from a rich, dark wood. It all ends in a spectacular sign over-top with lights that... Almost conjure up images of Christmas; a very real rainbow assortment of colors. But in the middle of that was the reason why; "The Northern Lights" was the name of the restaurant. The interior of this establishment was filled with the sounds of life.
The clinking of silverware and dishes, the sounds of many people talking -- even music. This place may not have been some "fine-dining" restaurant for the high-end of society. But it was definitely one of the fancier places meant for a family to come to. Which just fit into the theme of the Boreas Tribe being so welcoming to others." Last time I came here with my tribe, we had a blast. I don't think you can find much better for having a celebration." , she explains as she looks to Balotsi and Sylvia, gauging their reactions.
Either way, she intended on doing this. Once the group steps inside the sounds seem a little more intense, but not uncomfortably so. Unless one just held a disdain for people around them, this was a pleasant place to be in. Despite how busy it is, they're soon taken to a table and they can start thinking about what they want to eat." Don't worry, I can cover the costs of the meal. Get whatever sounds good to you!" , she offers. Then she considers something for a moment. Was Sylvia able to read? Did she even know what kind of meals these were?
That in mind, she then turns her attention to the girl. " Want me to help you pick something? I know pretty much everything they have." , she offers. The intention behind her offer was clear, she wanted to make things a bit easier on Sylvia.
But not imply that the girl couldn't figure things out by herself. It was very subtle, had to give her credit for that. Sylvia Balotsi
